Three NJ Enter q Market Street Saloon
aud Help Themselves
Yesterday morning about 30 O'Clock,
IS Officer John Shorts passed the Italian
saloon on Market street, ne heard several
persons walking about in the place, and
rspping on the door, he called their stten-
ton, and ordered that the place be closed
ND, snd the noise ceased. One of the men
asked him TO come 10, and as they seemed
rather fresh IN their remarks John started
for the back way 10 enforce his order, but
his attention Was attracted to several men
down on Market street who were sttempt-
lug 10 stir up scrapping match.
After moving them along he returned TO
the saloon, and walking in the back door,
found quite 8 number Of men tramping
about, looking for the proprietor.
What are you fellows doing here"
asked John.
I'VE came in to get drink, but can't
find the barkeeper," answered one OF the
party. I'VE found the back door open
and walked in"
1t was then discovered that the proprie-
tor was in bed, sound asleep. When he
was informed of what was going on below
he hastily dressed and went down, when
it was discovered that the door had been
opened by thieves and some five or six
bottles of bitters and whisky had been
stolen, no money having been left about.
The thieves we're doubtless the three men
whom Officer Shorts had ordered 10 keep
quiet, and after securing their booty they
had gone out to make use of it, leaving
the door wide open. Their entrance was
very easily gained, rs the locks on the
doors we're OF the most ordinary make and
almost any key would open them.

P.:tsburg Capitalists Form Company to
do business In West Virginia.
A certificate Of incorporation has Just
been issued by the Secretary of State to the
Charleston Bridge Company. The COM
pany propose 10 construct and maintain a
toll bridge across the Great Kanawha river
at Charleston, West Virginia, for passen.
gers and vehiC les, This will open up the
traffic OF the Chesapeake and Ohio depot
on the south side of the river to the city
proper and increase and develop her ship
ping facilities, besides giving better
scope for commercial extension than the
old ferry afforded. The principal Office
Of the company will be located in
Pittsburg, and the charter ia to
formed as TO have perpetual succession
The capital stock has been placed at $50, =
900, of which 5000 has been paid up,
and the privilege has been accorded of in
creasing the stock to $3.50, 900. 1t is d.
vided into shares of $50 each, held as
follows: B. l.. Wood, Jr., Of Pittsburg,
200 shares; Capt. K. 8. Carr, Charleston,
W. Va, 100; l.. NJ. Petitdidier, OF Cincin-
natl, 200; w. P. Wood, Pittsburg, 200; j.
v Hoag, Pittsburg, 200; S. NJ. Snyder,
Charleston, 100.
The principal promoter of the enter
prise is Captain K. s. Carr, who has been
for some time actively engaged in working
it up and bringing it TO head. The com.
pany has very strong backing, and the
need Of the bridge is so apparent and its
completion promises such material benefits
to the locality that the work of erection
will be commenced az soon az the weather
breaks next spring.

hers, pray who ia He? There are thou
sands of people in this world who think
that God Is very ordinary saint in COM
parison with themselves
THE JOY OF THE SHEPHERD
wheo the sheep was found is another
thought suggested by the parable snd
illustrated by the story.
And when he hath found him be layeth
him upon his shoulders, rejoicing. 1t Is
very true that the parents Of this lost boy
have never been permitted 10 rejoice over
his return. There il, We may hope, an
ether day for them like that of Jacob
with Joseph down on the plains of Goshen.
But it is one Of the cases where magma
ton may be safely trusted, since, In its
widest fancies, it cannot transcend the
facts had they been permitted to press
that boy once more to their bosom. Ii is
scene about which the world would gather
TO weep But TO which an angels tongue
could not do Justice. We shall not try,
but ask you Just to look through it up TO
the Joy in Heaven when but one lost so3l
is reclaimed. For remember That earth
is bat the shadow of Heaven, and things
therein each to other like, more than on
earth is thought" II is this that you see
when you turn your face full upon one Of
Christ's own descriptions of the scene. Il
is found in the familiar story of the Prodi-
gal Son. The moral condition of that son
as painted by the Masters hand has no
parallel in all history, AID no place in hu-
man society, for he is sent to sleep and
eat with the swine. Did you ever
read of mortal man reduced lower
than that, yet when that boy, forced by
want came within sight of home. The
father saw him and ran to him and though
wasted by famine, deserted By friends,
scorned by his own brother, foul with the
odors of the swine field, and reeking with
inward moral pollution. The father threw
mis- arms around him and kissed him, ard
the cry Of that boy, Father, | am not
worthy" is drowned by the joyful shout
of the father to bring the robe and the
ring and the shoes and the fatted calf.
Aud now some one is ready TO cry ont:
"Blssphemy Blasphemy" The thought
to them that God, infinitely pure and holy,
should stoop to kiss cheek 50 begrlmed
az his, is rank with blasphemy. Grid up
thy loins now like man, and will de-
maDd OF thee" Suppose that Charley
Ross, after years of association with child
stealers and murderers, could come home
to-day, and the mother, if living, could
know it was her own lost boy, would she
embrace him and kiss him? IOR know
there is bat one answer. Then for yon to
say that that frail mortal woman is more
compassionate and tender and loving than
God himself-whst is that but ignorance,
infidelity and blasphemy, all in one?
In the presence Of all these facts, how
evident that the great motive power in
our religious activities is not only the
peril OF the human soul, but also the grief
of God at its loss and His Joy over it when
found.

cursions to the city. All the members Of
the Assembly and organized workingmen
represented therein are working hard for
the success Of the benefit and th,ir efforts

FIRE ESCAPES.
J. T. CowIes' Improved Apparatus Being
Put Up in the City.

J. 7. CowIes' Improved Apparatus Being
Put Up in the City.
The thousands of people who daily pass
the intersection Of Market and Twelfth
streets have no doubt noticed approvlngly
the combined fire escape and stand-pipe,
erected on the Twelfth street front Of the
Mcclure House during the past week.
This apparatus, put up in compliance with
the ordinance recently adopted by the City
Council, is the invention of Mr.. J. T..
Cowles, OF Chicago. 1t is long distance
ahead OF other appliances of the kind, as
An examination into their merits by
Wheeling people has shown, and Iecogniz-
ing this fact, the REGISTER Company has
closed a contract with the inventor for the
placing of the apparatus upon the large
four story job printing house, bindery and
blank book mandatory, in the rear OF the
business office OF the paper. The apparat-
US is composed Of a combined ladder lire
escape, with suitable platforms at each
story Of the building 10 which 1t u at
tached, and stand-pipe for the etti-
cient forcing of water 10 The various floors
I'm case OF fire within the building, it being
the idea OF the inventor that the appli-
ance should contain provision for the eX-
tingulshiDg OF fires as we'll as afOrding
means for the safety Of persons IN the
building.
The staud-pipe is made of the best three
inch wrought iron pipe, lap-welded, with
2J-inch outlets at each window and on the
roof, and to each outlet is attached 23-
inch brass hose valve, with Oil-sOaked sole
leather discs, thus preventing any sticking
OF the valves By expansion or contraction.
This valve can be opened or closed with
the strength Of one finger at all times. At
the bottom of the stand pipe is two-way
Sismese valve, so arranged that two steam
fire engines can attach and work at the
same tune. This Siamese has automatic
valves, so that should one working steam
or burst ITS hose 1t does not stop the work
ing Of the apparatus.
The ladder is made independent Of the
stand-pipe and then securely bolted to the
,tsud-pips with short tap bolts. The pipe
and ladder are then securely bolted to the
platforms, which have previously been Sc
curely anchored into the walls OF the build
ing with forty-fye degree iron bar anchors
When complete on the building, the lad
der is warranted to sustain weight OF hve
tons. In places where there is sufficient
water pressure, it is very desirable to con
meet the stand.pipe with the street mains
When this is done it is only necessary to
open the valve on any floor, and you have
a stream Of water before fire engine could
leave its quarters. There are numerous
instances where fires have been put out by
this apparatus before the fire department
were on the ground, although notified
promptly.
Quite a number OF buildings are to bt
equipped with this apparatus during thu
next few days.

parison with the conference scale and sub
NIT it to the trade. Each factory will vote
on the matter and we will be able 10 give
an answer to the manufacturers in about
two weeks.
"Mr. Smith declined 10 talk any far
Their on the subject, but worker, who was
in the Office said The manufacturers
have always contened trat the
Rochester moves were bigger than
theirs, and have been clamor-
ing for a change They claimed that they
could not compete with Rochester tacto-
ries, and in order to do so have raised the
moves. can see by the scale that the
moves are bigger than Rochester, and the
shoe is on the other foot now. Rochester,
under this scale, will be unable TO compete
with manufacturers in Pittsburgh and the
West The wages of the gatherers were
bad enough as proposed at the conference,
but under the new scale they are worse.
The manufacturers lot only refuse to pay
lear count, but in some instances the
wages are reduced They have again re-
fused to answer our requests as 10 whether
the new lists aud rules would he open TO
discussion If the manufacturers adhere
TO their declaration and refuse TO discuss
these things aud greatly modify the scale,
there will he lockout before the end OF
the month that will close almost every
